### Beyond Self-Doubt: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome and Owning Your Career

Why do capable professionals question their achievements, hesitate to pursue new opportunities, or feel they constantly need to prove themselves?

Join SheSharp × Miranna for an interactive workshop with Sanna Välttilä-Wit, exploring how imposter syndrome can affect confidence, career growth, and the decisions we make about our careers.

Drawing on Positive Psychology, Sanna will share practical, evidence-based tools to help you recognize patterns of self-doubt, challenge limiting thoughts, and build confidence in your abilities and achievements.

What you'll learn
• Recognize your imposter patterns - identify how self-doubt, perfectionism, and fear of failure may be holding you back from career opportunities.
• Challenge your inner critic — Learn a practical technique for questioning negative self-talk and replacing it with a more evidence-based perspective.
• Own your achievements — Create a personal record of your accomplishments and learn how to use it when preparing for performance reviews, salary negotiations, or new opportunities.
• Build confidence through action — Strengthen your self-belief through manageable goals, practice, and learning from experience.
• Navigate workplace challenges — Understand how bias, exclusion, and lack of representation can contribute to imposter feelings, and explore ways to advocate for yourself.

You'll leave with practical exercises and strategies you can start using immediately to navigate self-doubt, recognize your achievements, and pursue new opportunities without feeling you need to be perfect first.
